Recruiting

Every recruiter is a little different.  For those who think all the recruiters want are points, it’s not exactly true.  It is my understanding that typically a recruiter will recruit for three years, and the majority will max their points out in just under two years.  It’s not very hard, especially with the current economic situation.

 

Now into my SITREP post…  The recruiter processing my paperwork now has all but one letter of recommendation, which means I should be able to go to MEPS at any time now, I’m just waiting.  Unfortunately I’ve had all the documentation to be able to hit MEPS for going on three weeks now and I’m still waiting around.  In my particular situation, I have a recruiter that is getting ready to go to ANCOC next week, shortly after that he’s done with recruiting duty.  Since he’s going to ANCOC he took leave for all of last week and is getting ready to take leave before he goes…  At this point, I get the feeling he’s not at all interested in getting his remaining recruits, including me, in the door.  Argh… I realize I’ll be waiting until he’s gone to be handed off to another recruiter, at which point I’ll see if I can have any influence on which one I go to, preferably one that hasn’t yet been soured by the monotony of recruiting.

I'm still hoping to hit the April Board...  At first I was assured, back in February that I'd make it to the March board...

One way or another I'll get there.
